Wow that's very clever and cool. I'm not sure I can say anything that hasn't already been said, but it's just beautiful.

Huge scope for a game jam! Congrats on pulling it off, there's so many elements at play, but it's still very enjoyable. The graphics are also really charming. I will defeinitely be on the lookout for the post jam version of this :)

Very nice idea, so many mechanics, cute graphics and matching music/sounds!

Nice puzzle game, with some quite challenging levels. The graphics, style and audio all come together quite well. My only criticism was a lot of new stuff kept appearing without sufficient explanation, but I figured it out by trial and error.

As a side note: The loading system seems to not work well on MacOS, often crashing and being very slow. But I won't hold that against you, just Godot 4 things!

Thanks for playing. I wish I better understood the internals of Godot and especially how it works with Mac on Browsers, so I could prevent those very long load times.

It works flawlessly on Windows, so I wouldn't worry :)

Fun game with a lot of variation both on level difficulty and unit behaviour! The soundtrack was a really cool element as well, very well done!

I really liked the difficulty progression. Visuals and sound are well mixed :)

I love puzzle games and this had all the elements I look for in one. A good ramp up in difficulty - starting low and introducing new items periodically. The graphics and sound choices worked well together. Only sadness was it finished too soon!

A very nice experience. The game feels polished and accessible, and the idea of a reverse lane-based tower defence game is quite original. I wished that the game had more puzzle levels, as there many types of enemies and good mechanics that I think don't get explored that much, despite being well executed. I liked a lot the design and the general art direction of the game. Great game overall, good job!

I finished the first 6 levels, and then I saw there was an arcade mode which was pretty cool. Felt like there was multiple solutions for the first 6 levels, and some felt really trivial. The game had a solid direction with music, art, and design so great job to the team!

Fun and user-friendly game! I like the artwork the most.

There is much to like here. The art, the music, the mechanics, the design,.. it is a very well rounded game with a lot of content and a lot of polish.

The only downside is some levels in puzzle mode were trivial to beat but apart from that great entry!
